1. Declutter First
- Before cleaning, remove unnecessary items. A clutter-free space is easier to clean.
2. Use Microfiber Cloths
- They trap dust better than regular rags and require less cleaning product.
3. Adopt a Top-to-Bottom Approach
- Dust and clean higher surfaces first so debris falls downward, preventing re-cleaning.
4. Use Baking Soda & Vinegar
- A powerful natural combo for removing stains, odors, and cleaning sinks or drains.
5. Clean as You Go
- Wipe kitchen counters, stovetops, and sinks immediately after use to prevent buildup.
6. Set a Cleaning Schedule
- Assign daily, weekly, and monthly tasks to stay organized and avoid overwhelming chores.
7. Disinfect High-Touch Areas
- Doorknobs, light switches, remotes, and handles should be wiped down regularly.
8. Use Lemon for Freshness
- Cut a lemon and place it in the fridge or garbage disposal to eliminate odors.
9. Invest in a Good Vacuum Cleaner
- A quality vacuum makes carpet, upholstery, and floor cleaning easier and more effective.
10. Keep Cleaning Supplies Handy
- Store them in key areas (like under the kitchen sink) so they’re easy to grab when needed.
